Isn't there conjecture regarding Essendon players not getting any suspensions.

If this is so we could do worse than a couple of their on ballers but I don't know who.

    Yarran - NO. Don't need another lazy front runner

    He won't be coming to us, but in fantasy land he'd actually fill a really important role for us off half back. Tomlinson would be great and I hope Dom and Frosty are getting in the ears of some of these homesick GWS kids.

    would love it if we could come in late and land a player such as treloar.

    unlikely.

    the only real stories around melbourne are that we are chasing lynch, likely to lose howe, and have enquired about every decent midfielder in the comp as well as a couple of fringe gws talls.

    Yep, I'm looking forward to being pleasantly surprised again this trade period.

    Not looking great is it?

    In terms of later picks, very bullish on Kurt Mutimer. Have had a little to do with him and significant upside imo. Central to Vic Country down back but received very little media attention. Good kick.

    I think, wada asada & our admins have finally got their man, the one they really wanted, & Now after much ado about nothing but cheating, I think they're players will walk like Scott f Byrd.

    so I agree with you wilmoy

    Outs(9). Howe-Giants(trade 1) Toumpas-Crows (trade 2) Garland (FA) bail m.jones mckenzie terlich fitz riley

    Promoted. Harmes VDNberg

    Ins. Tomlinson - Giants(trade 1) Tom Lynch - Crows(trade 2) Tom Bugg DFA. Thats the CHF, Half fwd and tough onball tagger.

    draft picks 5 (Harley Balic), 25 (Ryan Clarke),26 (Jake Gresham), 45 (Kurt Mutimer). Thats a skilled ruck rover, x factor midfielder, high possession rover and skilled running half back.

    What I really like about this is that it's a very young list. We'd only have to replace about 5 players over the next five 3 to 4 years. Plus, we'd need to fill those 5 question marks. Two more draft/trade/FA periods should get us the majority of those players and after that, it'll just be a case of ensuring we have good deoth and any non performers are shown the door. Gold Coast's McKenzie, Bennell and Prestia would be a good start with three of those question marks. ;)

    Very strong team!! Gives hope for the future. Moves beyond the inconsistent and questionable efforts of Dawes, Howe, Toumpas. And places great faith in the future built on Viney, Salem, Hogan, Brayshaw, Petracca, Watts. I'm going to keep any eye out for the first time this 17 group of players take to the field together, and no doubt will be pleased with the scoreboard result at the final siren. There is some serious talent on our list, and serious reason to be excited for 2016 and beyond!!

    I'd be thinking that Frost might be that full back you are looking for. Possibly Weiderman as that full forward but no idea where the rest will come from. It's exciting though.

    Im expecting big things from Frost. He's also agile not a plodder.

    I supposed based on the short term what I think is a realistic gap filling effort for next year i'd go with

    Lynden Dunn Sam Frost Nev Jetta

    I'm not sure about McKay?

    But, if these guys are fit and firing at the same time.

    I feel pretty good about next year.

    Give us 1 a grade mid to boot, I'll feel even better

    Lachie Plowman played a pretty good game today, having started on the bench: 20 poss (3 kicks, 17 HB) of which 6 uncont. at 85% efficiency and 3 tackles.

    Not bad for 1st game this year at AFL level.

    We get to have a closer look at him when he plays against us next week.

    Plowman can play, a little hard to judge his trade value though for mine

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
